This European Standard specifies a multi-screening method using reversed-phase HPLC for the detection of UV-filters listed in the cosmetic regulations. The method is applicable for the quantitative determination of 10 UV-filters, which are mainly used in emulsion-based cosmetic products and sunscreen sprays, specifically with regard to the maximum concentration listed in the cosmetic regulation. Other analytical methods for the qualification and quantification of UV-filters may be used if they lead to comparable results. The European Standard has been prepared by CEN/TC 392 "Cosmetics", the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR (France). The collaboration of DIN for the field of responsibility of CEN/TC 392 is carried out by the national mirror committee, Working Committee NA 057-07-01 AA "Kosmetische Mittel" ("Cosmetics") of NAL.
